The Calm Before The Storm

Last Friday I had my assessment of the current semester, and the outcome was that I needed to fix a few minor items in my portfolio in order to pass, which I shall be doing over the next few days.
Apart from that, I’m pretty much free of any obligations such as school work for the next three weeks, meaning that I’ve got plenty of time to make the necessary arrangements for my work placement in Finland. This time of leisure will be short lived because when I arrive in Finland I will be working full time for the first time in my life D:

Things that need doing include:

• Looking at insurance options
• Looking at how I can prove that I’m able to finance my stay in Finland
• Buying new shoes
• Having a drink with the people I’ll be going with

I also still need to put the finishing touches on my school project (which I don’t count a school work because it’s not that much work and it’s fun to do).
In the end I’m not overly proud of the product we’re delivering, but I did learn a lot about how not to do stuff (which surprisingly enough does not include ‘using JSP’ as a bad practice).

I don’t know why I’m even writing this blog entry, I guess I figured I had something interesting to say when I started writing but now (after spending about an hour rating movies on Flixter, through Facebook) I can’t quite remember what it was.
